[SunHELP] What hard drives work in a SPARCstation 20?

[Peter Stokes]

Hi Steve

You can pretty much use any SCA drives internally (1" high only). I have
shipped from 500Mb to 18Gb using most suppliers and would expect the 36Gb+
to work fine as well. Externally any SCSI drive will normally work.

I don't know much about Sparc hardware but I've managed to acquire a
SPARCstation 20 a long time ago and I recently got around to playing with
it.  It currently has 2 hard drives in it, each are a gig.  I've looked up
the specs on Sun's site and found out that it has a Fast SCSI controller.
The problem is, that I don't know what kind of drives I can use with that.
I've searched IBM's site and Seagate's and did a search on Google for "Fast
SCSI Drives".  All I can find are Ultra Fast, Fast SCSI 2, and things like
that.  Nothing that simply says Fast SCSI.  What type of SCSI drives can I
use with this?  Will any of these work?  Guess I'm too used to the world of
IDE drives.

Thanks,
Steve
